According to Douglas Adams, “Life is like a grapefruit. It’s orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast.” One of my Christmas gifts included a book by Douglas Adams, and I look forward to sitting down with my copy of The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy. My Christmas was wonderful. The highlights included singing Feliz Navidad in the car with a delightful nine year old, my rendition of Willow’s Whip My Hair song via karaoke, doing a white elephant gift exchange and having someone try to steal my dog, the Frankenstorm that happened the night before Christmas, and all the moments I was able to spend with my family and my love. In 2012, I learned a lot. For instance, I learned that when you buy chicken at the grocery store that says ‘manager’s special’ eat it that day. It is a new year. My resolutions are to take care of myself and to keep pushing myself. Cheers.
